Abstract
Radio Frequency (RF) amplifier circuits are disclosed which may exhibit improved video/instantaneous bandwidth performance compared to conventional circuits. For example, disclosed RF amplifier circuits employ various concepts for reducing an overall circuit inductance or enabling an increase in capacitance for a given circuit size.
Claims11
A radio frequency (RF) amplifier circuit in a package comprising an amplifier circuit having a RF decoupling capacitance,
- wherein a surface of the package is at least partially covered with a capacitor,
- and wherein the RF decoupling capacitance is connected to ground via the capacitor.
A radio frequency (RF) amplifier circuit in a package comprising:
- an amplifier circuit having a RF decoupling capacitance,
- an external capacitance provided externally to the RF amplifier, wherein the external capacitance is connected to the RF decoupling capacitance via one or more DC coupling leads.
